Learn more →Ibrahim Lodi (r. 1517–1526 CE) was the last Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate and the final ruler of the Lodi dynasty. He ascended the throne after the death of his father, Sikandar Lodi, and inherited a dynasty already mired in religious persecution, temple destruction, and systematic oppression of Hindus.
While Indian textbooks typically reduce his story to a single sentence — "Ibrahim Lodi was defeated by Babur at the First Battle of Panipat in 1526" — the documented reality of his nine-year reign reveals a pattern of ruthless tyranny, religious bigotry, and wholesale desecration that has been systematically obscured from public education.
This website exists to present the complete, documented truth — sourced from primary chronicles like the Tarikh-i-Salatin-i-Afghana, Tarikh-i-Daudi, Tarikh-i-Ferishta, and Makhzan-i-Afghani. Every claim can be verified through our comprehensive Sources & References page.
Ibrahim Lodi was not merely a failed ruler who lost a battle. He was the culmination of three generations of Lodi dynasty oppression — following Bahlul Lodi and Sikandar Lodi — each contributing to the systematic destruction of Hindu civilization in North India.
Every Indian deserves to know the documented truth about the rulers who shaped — and damaged — their civilization. This is not about hate. It is about historical literacy.
